Folks ,
My missus recently bought a 2000 5 Door Polo. the car didn't have a owners manual with it. I've been trying to find one online for a few weeks now ithout any joy. Does anyone here have a link to an on-line version of the manual ? She's noticed an "EPC" light came on yesterday for awhile and has gone off again.

thanks ,
Dave

Guess your only option would be going thru ebay auctions, there is no online version of the manual

Perhaps also contact a local dealer and see if they can source you a copy?

The EPC light staying on indicates a problem with the engine management system, if its gone off, all should be okay, but perhaps should be given the once over by a VW dealer to identify the fault or fault reading by somewith with VAG-COM

hope helps

I found info about the epc light on a lupo forum,

I think this light is normally to do with a problem with the brake light switch (under the pedal).

you might want to check the brake lights were working too.

Thats what the problem was with mine. Took it too VW and they charged me just over £40. The new switch was about £5 and they charged me £30 for labour and rest was VAT.

Take it to the dealers or VAG specialist to check it over with VAG-Com
